Pleasure ForestGreenCook, see how the gathering of the dry bones of covenant people, from every nation, links to the gospel:
John 11 (ESV)
48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation." 49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all. 50 Nor do you understand that it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish." 51 He did not say this of his own accord, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation, 52 and not for the nation only, but also to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad. 53 So from that day on they made plans to put him to death. 54 Jesus therefore no longer walked openly among the Jews (Judah/Benjamin/Levi), but went from there to the region near the wilderness, to a town called Ephraim (Jacob's other tribes adopted from-, and scattered throughout the gentiles), and there he stayed with the disciples.
